I just changed my service to this one, $60 a month and 2GB of data! Hard to beat that right now, even FIDO is only $3 cheaper. Good plans are out there now, if you're looking for better plans, JUMP! Best part about Koodo is no contract.

For those who don't talk much, the $60 6GB promo plans during back-to-school season were far better IMO.

$60 is still a fair bit to pay though, especially for what you're getting compared to the cheap brands like Moblicity and Wind.

If you are outside Toronto then Mobilicity and Wind are not even an option. I don't like the idea of roaming at all. I've looked at Wind, and even with their pending expansion, their coverage sucks balls. Some of us actually travel outside cities. Right now, I'd be roaming even if I had a local number from them.

I'm not saying it is the best deal out there, but for an unlimited talk deal, this is pretty good on value and there are no roaming charges.

Yeah, I need to get a smartphone now. I gave my wife my Galaxy Ace today so I am gonna have to get one very soon. Looking at the Galaxy S2 X that Koodo sells as I can get it for $200 with what I have left on my tab.

Based on what I've read on other forums, the data performance of the new providers seems to suck. There have been times while traveling when hspa tethering using Rogers has been my primary internet connection for weeks at a time. It's always been fast and reliable.

One thing I truly hate about Koodo is the lack of cutting edge phones. The best phone I can get from them right now is the Galaxy S II X, although it is only $250 outright purchase. I'm in the market for a new phone, but I cannot stand the concept of a contract to get an affordable phone. Oh well, last year's tech it is, lol.
